The writing style was so easy to read and I really enjoyed the pacing and plot of the book. Sometimes I wanted to knock eilis on the head, especially in the last part but I'm glad it ended the way it did. I thought homesickness and loneliness was captured really well in the beginning of the novel. As well as grief in the middle.
